Symmetrics

Take a half of a human face image, flip it horizontally, and reconnect to itself, creating a new physiognomy. The example was once used to demonstrate how no face can be perfectly symmetrical without losing much of its expressiveness. For that purpose, best use a picture of someone who won't mind! Auto-portraits are fine... and MIND the Rules, please!
